NEW YORK The Gallup Poll reports today that 'The percentage of Americans who say that most members of Congress are corrupt has increased significantly from the beginning of this year, and is now at the point at which slightly fewer than half of Americans believe most members are corrupt.'

This, interestingly, is similar to what Gallup found just prior to the 1994 elections, when Republicans swept Democrats out of power.

However, there is a twist: Relatively few Americans think their own member is corrupt. . ."

Well, some Americans think otherwise.
